Don grew up playing goalie in the Brussels MHA. At a young age he showed no fear stopping pucks. One of his coaches, Wayne Lowe would always say “you’re not going to get any better sitting on the bench”. Don took those words and through his strong work ethic and desire to improve continued to strengthen his game. He went on to play Junior C for the Wingham Ironmen. His Ironmen jersey hangs in the North Huron Westcast Community Complex in tribute to him. He showed great sportsman ship.
